Strand - Aviation Mechanic School Questions and Answers Already Passed What is the primary purpose of a magneto in an aircraft engine? The magneto generates electricity to ignite the fuel-air mixture in the engine, independent of the aircraft’s battery. Why is it essential to torque bolts in an aircraft engine to the manufacturer's specifications? Proper torque ensures that the bolts are tight enough to hold components securely but not so tight that they cause damage. How does...

CTS - Aviation Weather Theory Questions and Answers Graded A+ Standard Atmosphere was created by: Averaging conditions to create an idealized atmosphere. The standard temperature lapse rate in the lower layers of the atmosphere is: A decrease of 2° C per 1,000'. If the air temperature is +8°C at an elevation of 1,350 feet MSL and a standard (average) temperature lapse rate exists, what will be the approximate freezing level? 5,350 feet MSL. Moving up in the atmosphere, unsatur...

Mathematics in Aviation Maintenance (CHAPTER 3) with Verified Solutions How do you convert inches to feet when measuring aircraft components? To convert inches to feet, divide the number of inches by 12. If a wing panel measures 72 inches long, how many feet long is it? The wing panel is 6 feet long (72 inches ÷ 12 = 6 feet). What is the formula for calculating the area of a rectangular aircraft component? The area is calculated by multiplying the length by the width (Area = Length...

What are the characteristics of the flow of air around high pressure systems? Outward Downward Clockwise What are the characteristics of the flow of air around low pressure systems? Inward Upward Counterclockwise What is a Trough Line? An elongated area of low pressure. (Air rises in this area) (It is conducive to cloudiness and precipitation) What is a Ridge Line? An elongated area of high pressure. (Air moving out of a high depletes the quantity of air - therefore these are areas of ...
